Likely Contact Rash: The reaction you describe is likely a contact rash to baking soda and has nothing to do with food allergies. You can continue to eat bread with no worry.

Probably not: Baking soda rarely would cause allergy. It could have just irritated the skin. If there is a true concern, please see an allergist.
